VIRTUAL OFFICE

We are a small yet nimble virtual engineering company that specializes in product design, computer simulation, and mold design. We strategically combine several experts across multiple engineering and manufacturing disciplines to optimize our customer’s projects. We focus on Product Design, Stress Analysis, Mold Design, Mold Filling Analysis, and Process Optimization. By working across the design and manufacturing process allows us to manage the engineering data that gets transferred from each discipline to the next. Our goal is actually quite simple. We want to help improve the communications of product data while optimizing the process along the way. There are many strategies out there that companies try to employ like the STAGE GATE PROCESS, or LEAN, or Six Sigma to address the decision making process, cost reduction strategies, and improving quality standards. While this may help humans review, plan, and improve the communication process, it does not really address the design data. We directly address the product design intent and associated analysis and test data to predict problems and fix them early in the design phase.

It is for these reasons that we focus on helping our customers to better design the products upfront and then virtually  optimize them for manufacturing.  If we are going to compete in a global economy, we must adjust to different cost structures, quality requirements, shipping time, and associated costs.  In most cases, our customers only have one chance to design and build a product and that making that world class on time is a huge challenge. Our wide range of computer simulation includes stress analysis, thermal analysis, impact analysis, dynamic analysis, and especially mold filling analysis. When you combine 2 or more of these analysis together, the results can be quite amazing and project profit can go up dramatically. We typically see an improvement of 10% to 50% on every project we touch depending on customer requirements and available schedule.

In order to help accomplish this, we take our small and agile company, its associates, and work directly with other companies both large and small. We can be a small companies complete virtual company or a larger companies engineering support on projects that are either too hard or too difficult to finish on time. We have been asked to get involved in other international projects that were either seriously flawed, breaking, or inefficient and required expensive analysis and optimization. It is based on this optimization that has allowed us to break into some very critical companies in automotive, medical, and industrial markets.
